GETTING GRACE - opens in theatres March 23, and is already proving to be the company's top theatrical title, probably of all time (several "sneak peek" screenings have already occurred and SOLD OUT, with literally thousands of tickets cumulatively already sold!). This title deserves two or three mega-blogs. But for now, we'll include just a few images and a link or two.
Trailer # 1 (long version):
Hannover's SOCIAL MEDIA campaign in support of the widely-available BATTLECREEK release has already generated over 800,000 impressions on FaceBooks, Instagram and Twitter!
As with all theatrical releases for Hannover House, the company also controls the ancillary home video market, which (combined with Netflix / SVOD) are the real income sources for smaller independent films. The exercise of releasing films like BATTLECREEK to theatres is geared primarily for satisfying release goals and benchmarks needed for the key video retailers and Netflix qulaification. Of course, we also make some money on the box office settlements... but we have yet to have a film where box office (ALONE) generates a positive return on the Prints & Ads (P&A) investment. In this respect, we look at theatrical releasing as being the marketing engine that takes movies like BATTLECREEK, DAISY WINTERS, DEATH HOUSE and others to the "next level" of video sales success and streaming revenues. In some cases, HHSE also controls the worldwide sales... so the theatrical activities fuel this awareness as well. ONWARD!
BATTLECREEK is benefiting from the momentum that star BILL SKARSGARD has created from his current # 1 top selling national hit, "IT" - to his upcoming new TV Series from JJ Abrams and Stephen King: "CASTLEROCK" on Hulu. Hannover House is "at the right place at the right time" with BATTLECREEK.
You can find this Hannover House item on sale at WALMART, TARGET, BEST BUY, K-MART, FAMILY VIDEO and many other top locations nationwide.
Battlecreek Week One Retail Results SLAM in at 200% of Sales Goal!
No Dilution in 2 1/2 Years. No Plans To Ever Again.
HHSE-UPLIST-OTCQB:
Audited Financials = Third (3rd) Party Verification = SEC Reporting Standards
First of all, we'd like to point out that Hannover House is unlike most any other "OTC Pinksheet" listed company. We have been operating continuously since 1993 (24-years) and have been reporting to the OTC Markets since Dec. 2009 (8-years). Statistically, most OTC listed equities are flashes-in-the-pan time wise... lots of Stock Hype / I.R. Promotions, insider share dumps, and quick closures. That's definitely not HHSE.
It Doesn't Take Much to Double or Triple the HHSE Share Price - Look at the market-cap spike for HHSE stock earlier this year (seen as June, 2017). This increase in PPS was due to shareholder excitement about the prospect that a merger with Crimson Forest would provide HHSE with high-profile films to distribute. The growth in PPS was not based on any increase in revenues (in fact, the time-distraction of the Crimson merger caused many 2017 releases to be delayed). The PPS spike was driven solely by enthusiasm.
The Board believes that Fully Registered Shares will be more attractive to HHSE program suppliers and investors - as well as to institutional investors and hedge funds - and that pursuing these activities now is a good use of ongoing cash flows
VODWIZ - There's so many exciting developments and updates for us to cover on this venture - that even a Cliff Notes summary at this time cannot do it justice. Stay tuned for separate news on this topic!

QUIETUS - Retail support for this Feb. 27 long-anticipated re-release (and HHSE's first release of this item in Quality Trade Cover format), continues to build. Shown below is the FULL PAGE ad for the Feb. 12 issue of PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY, the trade industry guide reaching 68,000 book industry professionals and book stores each week. Also below is the Amazon.com product link...
Many top reviewers have described QUIETUS as a literary masterpiece... so get a copy and find out for yourself why major retailers such as Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million and Hudson Group are presenting this book - first released in 2002 - back on the New Release shelves!

BLOODFEAST - A limited release of "R" rated DVDs and BluRays will also hit selected retailers on Tuesday... but the BIG GUNS will be blasting with our "SPECIAL, UNRATED AND UNEDITED DIRECTOR'S CUT" - which is rolling out "only in theatres" on a city by city basis. Management believes that the hard-core Horror fans will support this Unrated version, and thus far, the response from the specialty media supports this belief.

SONY PICTURES HOME ENT. & DISTRIBUTION STRATEGIES - HHSE has been working for over a year now with industry veteran ERIC DOCTOROW, who is best known for his 20+ years as President of Paramount Home Entertainment (a $-Billion+ Division), and more recently as C.E.O. of Random Media. Many current and upcoming HHSE titles will enjoy the distribution support through SONY as well as Video-On-Demand with The Orchard, and for selected titles, worldwide distribution with Sony Pictures International. HHSE / Medallion are maintaining the existing distribution pacts with other wholesalers - most notably Cinedigm. But for eligible and qualifying titles, the distribution access into Sony's powerhouse field sales force and distribution pipeline is something of a material development for HHSE. This move enables HHSE Management to focus on productions, acquisitions and theatrical release activities - and turn over the distraction and difficulties of home video distribution (as well as the cash-flow drain of video manufacturing and freight) to be handled under more beneficial terms.
The initial titles that will benefit under this new distribution pact are: DAISY WINTERS, THE ALGERIAN and BONOBOS: BACK TO THE WILD. There are other notable developments in motion with BONOBOS that will merit a separate blog or press announcement. But for now, here's a link to a behind-the-scenes look at the production of this film, and the woman behind the Lola Ya Bonobo Sanctuary in Africa:

Oh... and did we forget to mention the 26-city BUS TOUR prior to the theatrical opening? Or the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) promotion in Nashville? Or the first-time-ever that the Children's Miracle Network has cross-promoted a theatrical release film? There's so much more to the Getting Grace release campaign, that other blog(s) would be required!

UPLIST REGISTRATION - The dissolution with Crimson Forest will be completed this week, with a formal termination document that has been mutually approved, and a series of short-form terminations for the individual title agreements (as some had different licensors than Crimson Forest Entertainment Group, Inc.). This will also trigger the long-requested removal of HHSE management names off the Nevada Secretary of State listing as corporate officers. Part of the overall settlement with CRIM involves the reversion of rights in "Where's the Dragon" back to the original licensors... which is why this item has not appeared on any of the HHSE release schedules for the past four months. With the Crimson merger obstacle removed, the next steps for our uplist are as follows:
a). PRE-AUDIT - Completion of formatting and overview by outside CPA - covering 2015 Tax Returns, and the full years of 2016 and 2017. This step is expected to be completed this week, with the results handed over (along with the remainder of the audit materials) to our PCAOB firm.
b). UPDATED LIBRARY REPORT - This step is expected to be completed by Feb. 26, and provided to the auditors as the last item for full delivery.
c). REDRAFTED FORM 10 REGISTRATION - This is already completed, awaiting review by outside S.E.C. counsel, and the auditor's letters.
d). TIMING - Once filed with the S.E.C., the registration becomes effective on the earlier of 60 days, or S.E.C. approval. This will trigger our uplist to OTC: QB and the activation of stock share transfers electronically through the DTC. Management believes that being fully registered, and uplisted away from the Pinksheets, will spark a wave of new investors and funds.

Battlecreek Week One Retail Results SLAM in at 200% of Sales Goal!
Greetings again HHSE Friends & Followers: Initial week depletions of BATTLECREEK DVD and BluRay formats (combined) clocked in at more than double the first week's sales forecast! You can find this Hannover House item on sale at WALMART, TARGET, BEST BUY, K-MART, FAMILY VIDEO and many other top locations nationwide.

Pick-Ups day for RIOT ACT provides HHSE with opportunity to shoot E.P.K. Interviews
Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - the first pass edit is completed for the feature film, THE RIOT ACT, and director Devon Parks decided to shoot some additional scenes for pacing and continuity last Friday. This day of "pick-ups" occurred inside one of the period-restored Rail Cars of the Arkansas & Missouri Railroad in Springdale, Arkansas. After the full day of shooting, HHSE Director of Marketing DESIREE GARNIER and videographer JOSH IRWIN were able to get lengthy interviews with director Devon Parks and Producer-Leading Lady Lauren Sweetser.
These interviews will provide useful material for National Broadcast Entertainment Shows and general media as part of the film's "Electronic Press Kit" (E.P.K.) in support of this summer's theatrical release. This footage will also become one of the sources for the "making of" featurette that will appear on the DVD and BluRay copies of THE RIOT ACT.
This film looks superb, and seems well positioned for commercial success!

Trailer # 1 (long version):
Our recently re-focused Theatrical Release model is delivering huge benefits to our ancillary revenues... and our new partnerships with indie labels is providing access for the VODWIZ streaming venture, which truly could become "the tail that wagged the dog" for HHSE shareholders
We have an impressive slate of titles for 2018 and 2019 - and two terrific distribution partners for North America (Cinedigm Entertainment and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment) - as well as our direct relationships with all of the major theatre exhibition chains. Our "lower-end" titles are much higher profile than in past years... and our higher-end titles are now genuine theatrical caliber contenders. We are positioned for the proverbial lucky break that happens when the right film is released at the right time...
Go HHSE!
HHSE We believe that HHSE is "one film away" from being a major independent studio. All it takes is any one of the many titles in our current release queue to become a surprise box officer performer such as "Lady Bird" or "Get Out" and we are suddenly a $100-MM company.
Yowsa! Mega-Success of "IT" video release spurs THOUSANDS of new orders for HHSE's BATTLECREEK!
BATTLECREEK hits most major retailers this TUESDAY (Feb. 6) - and is already the company's largest new release "shipped" item in five years. Based on current pre-orders with Amazon.com, which are STRONG (actually 10-X stronger than last year's top video, "Lost in the Pacific"), we are hopeful that this consumer interest will also apply to Walmart, K-Mart, Target, Best Buy and other locations. Check out this film, it's worth the modest purchase price!
